Use dried beans: Dried beans are more flavorful and economical than canned beans. If you use dried beans, be sure to soak them overnight before cooking.
Cook the beans until they are tender: The beans should be soft enough to mash easily with a fork.
Use a food processor or blender: A food processor or blender will make it easy to puree the beans until they are smooth.
